Past honorees include James Brown, Paul Simon, Isaac Hayes, Carlos Santana, Al Green and others. Awards will also be given for Urban Song of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, Producer of the Year and Publisher of the Year. Top urban producers and BMI songwriters whose songs have hit #1 on the Billboard Charts will also be recognized. BMI is a non-profit organization that collects license fees from businesses that use music and then distributes royalties to the music creators and copyright owners. BMI currently represents over 300,000 songwriters, composers and publishers from all genres of music.
